This was probably the most requested feature. - Playback of channels can be cancelled by just clicking on them again.
No more zombies. - Squashed a ton of Xtream bugs.
- Open TV now remembers your last search before entering a category, series, or season.
- Re-added the scrollbar. I personally don't like it, but you guys do, so it's back.
I will consider making it an option if I get feedback that I'm not the only scrollbar hater. - All episodes of a season are added to the queue when playing an episode.
- Fixed a bug where you couldn't use left or right arrow keys in the search bar.
- The Linux Flatpak package now uses MPV as base, which means it should be kept up-to-date
with the latest dependencies in a more consistent fashion.
If you had problems with the Flatpak package, please try it now. - Updated all dependencies.
- Pulled release 1.8.0 (failed release due to too many bugs), fixed a bunch of bugs from 1.8.0.
